Accessing Documents
After generating documents, you can access them through HubSpot contact records or the Files manager.
From HubSpot Records
- Open the HubSpot record (contact, company, deal, or ticket) for which the document was generated.
- In the property search bar, find the file property you selected during template setup.
- Click the link to preview/download the generated document.
- If the template is set to append files, the property may contain multiple URLs separated by semicolons; the last one is the newest.
